However, on the level of basic physical reasoning, it is of course a no-brainer that warming will cause land-ice to melt (and melt faster as it gets hotter) and ocean waters to expand, so sea-level rise is the inevitable result. Source: IPCC ( 2021 ) Figure 9.25. We would see massive coastal erosion happening all around.

The increased intensity of storm surges coupled with the ineffectiveness of the coral reef barrier is leading to considerable coastal erosion in the Pacific Islands. Coastal erosion is occurring at an alarming rate within the Pacific Islands. Pacific Climate Change’ accessed 28 February 2021, [link]. [3]
